Java is a town in Walworth County, South Dakota, United States. The population was 121 at the 2020 census.

Java derives its name from Java coffee, and Coffee Town was an early variant name. Java received its name from railroad crews on the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway Line who would stop for coffee in the town prior to the railroad's relocation in 1908.[1]
